No heat in dryer. Was advised it was the heating element. Install a new element and was not the problem. Requested that installation instructions be sent. Did not happen. Advised by partsselect to contact Whirlpool. No one answers my phone call. I need you help. Mike viele 460 361 3799
For model number LT7000auwo
Hello Michael, thank you for your question. If the unit isn't heating at all the most likely issue is a thermostat, not the element. We would recommend testing the thermostats in the unit to determine which one or ones have failed. You will want to test the Cycling Thermostat - Limit 135/155 PartSelect Number: PS11743793, Thermal Cut-Off Kit PartSelect Number: PS334278, and the Thermostat Heater PartSelect Number: PS11743292. To test the thermostats you will want to follow these steps. Dryer thermostats are usually oval shaped and about an inch and a half in length. Also, there should be two wires leading to each thermostat. Label these wires before you remove them so that you are able to correctly reconnect them later. The wires leading to the thermostat are connected using metal slip on connectors. Remove the wires by pulling on the connectors, and not the wires themselves. It may be a good idea to use a pair of needle nosed pliers to help you. Set your multimeter to the R X 1 setting. Take each of your meter's probes and touch one to each terminal. You are testing for continuity, and you should receive a reading of either zero or infinity. At room temperature, testing the thermostat should produce a reading of zero. But if a thermostat is tested when it is heated to its limit, a reading of infinity should be produced. We strongly recommend that you test your thermostat at room temperature. If the test you conduct with your thermostat does not produce these results, then you should replace the component. I hope this helps!
